I moved this here from the old thread (I posted it today)..

Savage repeats the "misconception" that the 14th Amendment gives ILLEGAL alien children born here, U.S. citizenship. SCOTUS has never ruled on that.

However some cases involving non citizens contain a judge's "incidental expression of opinion, not essential to the decision and not establishing precedent -- an incidental remark" (obiter dictum).

Internet sources: In weighing a remark uttered under such circumstances, it is well to bear in mind the often quoted words of Chief Justice Marshall:

"It is a maxim not to be disregarded that general expressions in every opinion are to be taken in connection with the case in which those expressions are used. If they go beyond the case, they may be respected, but ought not to control the judgment in a subsequent suit when the very point is presented for decision. The reason of this maxim is obvious. The question actually before the court is investigated with care, and considered in its full extent. Other principles which may serve to illustrate it are considered in their relation to the case decided, but their possible bearing on all other cases is seldom completely investigated."

The opinions expressed by justices vis-a-vis ILLEGAL alien children born here were beyond the cases being decided.

Yes I know that I am a nothing, a nobody.. stupid and uneducated.. but I swear that could have finally got through the third grade but I got drafted that year.

Also from the old thread posted today:

I agree that we citizens can no longer trust SCOTUS. It appears to be more political than the Warren Court was.

And I still recall those "Impeach Earl Warren" billboards all over the country.

We could have gotten civil rights accomplished without destroying the Tenth Amendment.
